]]>This past weekend, Portland hosted one of the coolest food events in the world: Feast Portland. Over the course of three days, food was eaten, chef tricks were learned, tweets were sent, and memories were made! Tillamook couldn’t have been more honored to be a part of the festivities.

We started the week by giving out 6 pairs of tickets to the Sandwich Invitational and Grand Tasting through a Haiku contest through email and Twitter. They were all amazing, but you can read some of our favorites here.

At the Oregon Bounty Grand Tasting, Tillamook served over 4,000 samples of what we fondly call “America’s Best Grilled Cheese.” Using America’s Best Sharp Cheddar and America’s Best Monterey Jack, the sandwich had the sharp bite and an incredible creaminess from the Monterey Jack. Visitors could also grill their faces onto a sandwich using the Tillamook Cheese’wich app at our photo booth!

In addition to these events, we hooked up some lucky folks with a Tillaphone. What is a Tillaphone, you ask? It’s a phone that when used between 11pm and 3am, will get you a delicious Tillamook grilled cheese sandwich delivered to you for free. Chefs, media, and lucky local Portlanders used their phones to order one of three Tillamook sandwiches: the Triple Threat (celebrating our awards at this year’s ACS competition with Tillamook Colby Jack, Vintage White Extra Sharp Cheddar, and Sharp Cheddar), Spicy BBQ (bacon, BBQ sauce, caramelized onions, and Tillamook Sharp Cheddar) and the Dark Ginger from the Sandwich Invitational.

If you were able to make Feast, what was your favorite part? Did you meet your favorite chef, eat the most amazing grilled cheese sandwich you’ve ever had, try the best wine of your life, or realize that great food can be life changing? We can’t wait to hear your stories! See ya next year!
